InGaN-Based microLED Devices Approaching 1% EQE with Red 609 nm Electroluminescence on Semi-Relaxed Substrates
In this paper, we report the successful demonstration of bright InGaN-based microLED devices emitting in the red spectral regime grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) on c-plane semi-relaxed InGaN substrates on sapphire. Through application of an InGaN/GaN base layer scheme to ame...

In this paper, we report the successful demonstration of bright InGaN-based microLED devices emitting in the red spectral regime grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) on c-plane semi-relaxed InGaN substrates on sapphire.

Improvement to the design of the growth scheme also yields higher power output resulting in an increase to the external quantum efficiency (EQE).
